Sandi,
Bratislava is the capitol of Slovakia. Its history begins around 900. This was also about the time the territory that is now Slovakia came under the rule of Hungary. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was created in 1867 and carved up after World War I. That is when Czechoslovakia was created. Finally, in 1993 Slovakia became an independent country. The only time Austria had anything to do with Slovakia was during the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Even then it was a dual Monarchy where Hungary was independent of Austria. They just shared the same king.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Bratislava

Agnes Cerne, was great grandmother...of course that is American spelling...I don't know about the old country spelling, but thank you so much for your discovery!

The Zupanic (Agnes' husband) was Franc...my grandmother was Katherine Supancic and her siblings that came to this country were Rudy (Ignac), Anthony, Agnes and Lena. Not sure of proper Slovak versions of those names. I've recently come to know that the Supancic was likely originally Zupancic or close to that. I'm anxious to look up the town you referenced on the map! Thanks so very much for that information.

Entered your three surname spellings in the 1995 Slovakia Census.
Cerne had no surname hits. As Cierne there were two towns.
Supancic had no hits. The alternative given was Zupancic. There were 7 listings and all of them lived in Bratislava. There were also 7 Zupanicicova (female form), 6 lived in Bratislava.

Seeking my Granny's maiden name and her mother's maiden name. Have not found records of their voyage to America, yet. Her father came first, and family came to America in 1912.
Is anyone familiar at all with the names?
Thanks so much!
Sandi
